1 min read Updated

This works for hosting email in cPanel. For Business, Enterprise or Pro Mail, check the Trash folder in webmail first, then contact support as soon as possible.

  1. Log in to cPanel and open Backup & Restore.
  2. Choose a recovery point from before the emails were deleted.
  3. Open the Email section and choose the email account.
  4. Restore the whole mailbox, or browse to the folder or messages you need.
  5. Click Recover. The emails reappear in the mailbox, so check webmail or refresh your mail app.
